In this episode, I talk about what I see as the three most likely scenarious for human society in the near future. You could call it a choose your own adventure kind of podcast. You choose:- Tragedy (environmental, war, science gone bad)
- Technocracy (control at the cost of human freedom)
- Transformation (listen to find out!)
- My Paper on technology and culture.
Thanks to my old friend Chris Behre for his song and vision of transformation. If you ever find this link Chris, let me know how you're doing! Thanks also to Mortal for the intro and transitions (from Lusis).

Great show my friend...it was heartfelt!
Thanks Shatari. Glad you felt the heart of it (: Especially towards the end. Definately an odd blend of moods (from my hyper goofy beginning to more serious ending).
I was sad to not get your thoughts on the last show, though I know having to do it over was a pain.
Cheers,
Leif
The most interesting part of this episode for me was the transformation portion, which a friend and I have referred to a similar idea as kingdom transformation. The best part about it is the personal interaction it entails, like your commentary -- it shook me out of my multi-tasking, half-listening, half-working, passive mode of operation and made me pay attention. Just the act of personalizing the tone a tiny bit -- "Hey you're okay, whoever you are listening right now..." -- was enough to re-focus my attention fully on the what you were saying. Sometimes that personal side of things can get lost in the mix of daily life, especially on the Internet.
Thanks James,
Yeah, something felt...good...about that personal part, almost a little prophetic (in the sense that God was saying this to people too...but who knows).

Hi amibugginya,
No your not bugging me! (Do I sense a little bono in that name?) (;
Thanks for your great thoughts, I'll read them on the next podcast and respond a little more in detail then. Podcasting is supposed to be a time-shifting technology btw, so being late to the party here! (;
One neighbor at a time --like it. Its the details though that I'd love some help and clarity with...
Warmly,
Leif
BTW, noticing your comments here -and I think on the poll --you'd like the 'how bleeding purple listeners get spiritually connected' and the last podcast about Mclaren's new book The Secret Message of Jesus (and the challenge I give after it). Look forward to hearing more from you amibugginya!
